After upgrading to the LPY. My phone seems to be plagued with the problem of Mobile data not turning ON. It works sometimes and then after a while the 'E' icon in the status bar disappears and the data doesn't turn on no matter what.
I restarted the phone dozens of times. Removed the battery, removed the SIM. I even hit *#9900# and disabled the fast dormancy. No luck whatsover.

Could someone please help me out here??:(

I had to delete existing APN's and
Settings - More - Mobile Networks - Acces Point Names
press Menu now - choose Reset to default

For me it worked...

BTW do not forget then to select the one that is meant for internet (not wap, mms)

akshay, i had the same problem. just do a factory reset from your phone. be sure to backup your data via kies first if you want to save your data.

Thanks for the quick response. I deleted the APNs restored to default. Still no luck.
I don't want to factory reset cuz its way too much work to install everything again!:(

I would strongly suggest not doing a factory reset under lpy.

Another option that may help which I have done a few times successfully is to go to manage applications, find the dialer app and delete cache and data. This should reset your data connections and will prompt for the connection you need before reapplying.

Hope it helps.
